its saying that supporting and contributing to AIDS research is a good thing and that discriminating against, abusing and not accepting people with a horrendous fatal disease is a bad thing????????????????????

i think it's very obvious what it means, has a half decent, if formulaic ring to it and for a respected representative of the macho world of football to be vocal in support of sufferers of a disease that's to many people associated with homosexuality is valuable

A) People discriminate against the person because they have AIDs ie. "It's what's on the inside that counts", or matters, to them, reflected in their discriminatory treatment of victims.

And / Or

B) Victims should be judged by their character, not by the fact that they have AIDs, ie. the old "It's what's on the inside that counts" adage usually used by fat people. Not that fat people have AIDs, but you know what I mean.
